Beyoncé sheds tears of joy with Blue Ivy and Jay Z at the MTV Video Music Awards

August 25, 2014

Beyoncé became emotional at the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday, after a spectacular performance that can only be described as "flawless."

Following a show-stopping 20-minute performance of a medley of songs from her latest album, queen Bey was presented with the Michael Jackson Vanguard Award by none other than her husband Jay Z and the couple's adorable daughter, Blue Ivy.

It was no doubt the joy of seeing her favourite duo that made the singer overcome with emotion. The star hugged and kissed her rapper husband and tiny tot after Jay Z handed over the prestigious paperweight.

The overwhelmed
Halo star said: “I’m so full. Thank you. I have nothing to say but I’m filled with so much gratitude. I thank god for this moment. I love you so much. “Baby Blue, my beloved I love you.”

The couple’s adorable daughter is then heard saying into the microphone: “Go Mommy”.

Beyoncé stole the show in a colourful mosaic leotard as she performed new hits such as No Angel and Haunted, as well as popular tracks such as Drunk in Love and Partition.

The two-hour show featured other performances from artists including Taylor Swift, Usher and Nicky Minaj.
